Hospitalization and Parkinson’s Disease: Safety, Quality and Outcomes
Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that can result in motor and non-motor symptoms, following motor and non-motor basal ganglia circuitry degeneration. Motor features include rigidity and bradykinesia, as well as gait and balance difficulties, patients may also develop tremors. Pharmacological treatment is focused around replacing dopamine, and carbidopa/levodopa is the most used medication. In more advanced PD stages, motor symptoms become more challenging to manage.
Radiosurgery
How to avoid and manage complications in stereotactic radiosurgery? The most current and exciting developments as well as essential findings on refinements are published in this new volume. It addresses topics such as benign and malignant tumor radiosurgery, trigeminal neuralgia and headache, spectroscopic imaging, new hardware assessments, extracranial radiosurgery, and vascular malformations. The high-quality peer-reviewed reports were presented by experts in their field at the 2003 meeting of the International Stereotactic Radiosurgery Society. This publication is of special interest to neurosurgeons, radiation oncologists, medical physicists, neurologists, and oncologists, who require precise information to keep up to date with the important developments on the use of stereotactic radiosurgery.
Handbook of Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery
This volume offers a comprehensive discussion of the stereotactic frames, frameless systems, and radiosurgical procedures utilized in the treatment and control of movement and neurological disorders, Parkinson's disease, chronic pain, spasticity, tumours, epilepsy, and arteriovenous malformations.

Proceedings of AICCE'19
This book gathers the latest research, innovations, and applications in the field of civil engineering, as presented by leading national and international academics, researchers, engineers, and postgraduate students at the AWAM International Conference on Civil Engineering 2019 (AICCE’19), held in Penang, Malaysia on August 21-22, 2019. The book covers highly diverse topics in the main fields of civil engineering, including structural and earthquake engineering, environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, highway and transportation engineering, water resources engineering, and geomatic and construction management. In line with the conference theme, “Transforming the Nation for a Sustainable Tomorrow”, which relates to the United Nations’ 17 Global Goals for Sustainable Development, it highlights important elements in the planning and development stages to establish design standards beneficial to the environment and its surroundings. The contributions introduce numerous exciting ideas that spur novel research directions and foster multidisciplinary collaborations between various specialists in the field of civil engineering.
Cardiovascular MR Manual
The book provides an introduction to CMR imaging that is understandable and focused on the relevant information needed to using CMR imaging in clinical practice. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging has become an established imaging modality with an expanding range of clinical indications. While in the past the availability of CMR imaging was limited to a few specialist centres the method is becoming more widely available. Most clinicians therefore need to have a general understanding of the diagnostic information that can be obtained from CMR imaging, the indications for referral as well as contraindications and limitations of the method. For cardiologists and radiologists in particular, CMR imaging will become a routine diagnostic tool and training curricula in Cardiology or Radiology reflect this trend by increasingly demanding training in CMR imaging.
